AUSTIN — An attorney representing suspended University of Texas linebacker Jordan Hicks said Sunday that any sexual assault allegations involving his client are “completely false.”

Austin lawyer Perry Minton released a statement saying Hicks is “devastated” over the incident that led to him and teammate Case McCoy being sent home from San Antonio before the Longhorns' Valero Alamo Bowl victory Saturday.

On Friday morning, UT announced the suspensions of two unnamed players for violating team rules. Two sources close to the program confirmed those players were Hicks, an injured linebacker, and McCoy, a backup quarterback.

Earlier that morning, according to a San Antonio police report, a 21-year-old woman accused two men of sexual assault between 2 and 2:40 a.m. at a downtown hotel.

Police declined to confirm a report that the two accused men were UT football players but said no arrests were made and no charges were filed.

“Mr. Hicks vehemently asserts that all conduct that occurred during the evening of the incident was consensual by everyone involved,” Minton said in his statement.
